like the title says...any good point and bad points to consider when replacing orig parts with titanium coated bolt, firing pin and macfarland one-piece gas ring?...i have them but have'nt installed them yet, trying to get some feedback...thanks!

Firing pin is a broken piece waiting to happen, and the bolt won't do a damn thing a stock bolt won't do equally well. The Macfarland gas rings are OK I've been told, but I wouldn't bother installing it until and unless your stock rings wear out or one breaks.

I know from experience that the titanium firing pins are to brittle. My broke in like the first 1500 rounds or something. I personally would not trust the bolt being titanium but either way you would always have your originals for a backup. As for the macfarland rings...those work great and have had zero issues with them. I would install those but be careful with the titanium parts.
